"You shouldn't be here, you're the Alpha King and my ma... ex-mate's uncle." I managed to say, trying to resist his touch.
He chuckled deeply, "You forgot one more thing," he said simply, brushing his thumb over my lower lips.
"What is that?" I whispered almost inaudibly.
"I'm also your mate." He murmured, leaning towards me.
"What do you want from me?" I asked, feeling so confused.
"Isn't it obvious?" He asked with a smirk, "I want you."

Aria is heartbroken, when her fated mate, the Alpha's son, betrays and brutally rejects her.
Seeking temporary comfort, she finds herself in the arms of a mysterious stranger who offers her the comfort she desperately craves that night, under the influence of a sexual stimulant and she flees the next morning.
To her shock, she discovers that her passionate night was spent with her ex-mate's uncle, the Alpha King, Alpha Knox Blackwood, who is also her second chance mate.
Knox however is not willing to let her go. He has had a taste and wants her for himself.
Knox offers her a second chance- an opportunity to leave her past as an omega behind.
Will she accept?
What happens when their dark pasts rise to haunt them? Can they build a future together or will the opposing forces drive them apart?

A Night with the Alpha King: Rejected and Reclaimed

　　Before I could even blink, Hunter threw a punch straight at my face. I barely dodged, stumbling back a few steps, almost losing my balance.


　　"Too slow," Hunter said, folding his arms. "Speed over strength, remember? You cannot win by overpowering anyone. Not with your build. You need to be faster, smarter- hit when they're vulnerable and avoid attacks that'll take you out in one shot."


　　I nodded, breathing heavily and sweating profusely. "Got it."


　　Hunter ran a hand through his hair. He wasn't even breathing heavily, or sweating. It wasn't fair. We had been training for hours, yet I was the only one looking like a mess.


　　"We're done for today." He said, glancing up at the sky that was getting brighter.


　　I released a deep breath of relief, and relaxed my tense muscles.


　　"Oh, thank the moon goddess." I breathed, collapsing to my knees.


　　Hunter stared down at me with an unimpressed look on his face.
